Any good budget wired earphones with mic to recommend? <$100
Thanks!
if mic is priority [e.g. for Teams / Zoom], can consider apple earpods, below $30, there are 3 versions, 3.5mm, lightning, usb-c

if using in daily commute, suggest IEM, to block out noise, many china audio brands with affordable IEM from $10 onwards, look for those with removable cable, can choose cable with mic

one example is moondrop chu ii, below $30, but iirc, need to buy separate cable that has mic

moondrop chui ii + mic cable still below $100 buck. can go sim lim sq.. i think level 1.. there is a shop that you can test and try..

I have recently lost one of my WMX4-1000 earbud from Sony. I like the feature because it has multi-point connections, it is mainly used for handling conference call and watching YouTube video on my smartphone it will be great if I can pair you with my TV as well. Also I would like a noise cancelling feature that is very good for the noisy office environment. I'm thinking of getting an open ear ear-phone at the moment. Alternatively is there any other recommendation? My budget is between $250 to $400?

Recommend Xenns top for non-vocal + all rounder
Recommend mangird tea og 1 for female vocals ( chinese classic)
recommend az80 for male vocals dynamic preset for a bump to neutral range
